Scotland and Wales refuse permission to use asulam.
Scotland and Wales have refused to grant approval to use asulam for bracken control in 2023. The decision for Northern Ireland has not yet been announced.
This decision means it will only be possible to use asulam in England this year and that control in Scotland and Wales will be restricted to physical methods: cutting, bruising, trampling, pulling etc.
The formal notification will be issued tomorrow and further details will be made available on the BCG website.
